This link goes to a Ted Talk by Jon Ronson, journalist from London, speaking about the research he did for a book on psychopathy. He pegs the relevant issue which is the fact that all of us display some characteristics of various mental disorders, including psychopathy. All of us, you say? Yes, all of us. Madness is inherent in the human condition. We have the capacity for rationality, but we also all have moments of unconsciousness. We have moments in which we are not as kind as we could be. We have moments of every description, but these moments do not condemn us. We can still be decent people.

In the Bible, Matthew 7:5 reminds us that we are not perfect. "You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye." Before we accuse anyone else of madness, it is in our best interests to recognize that we are human too, with requisite portions of inexplicable wildness.
